Unit of Competency LMTTD5003A - Design and produce woven products
Description This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to develop designs and produce woven products to meet a specified design brief.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit applies to the interpretation and analysis of a design brief and development of a design for woven products such as garments, textile products or accessories, and fabrics. Production of the product is required to meet design specifications and may include use of a wide range of yarn types. The design brief may be determined by a trainer or supervisor and may be applied to a particular context within the textile industry. The design brief includes specifications for the woven product. The design and subsequent calculations and analyses may be undertaken manually or by using Computer Aided Design (CAD) programs.Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team-related activities.The application of this unit is according to OHS practices of the enterprise and workplace practices, which may include:requirements prescribed by legislation, awards agreements and conditions of employmentstandard operating procedureswork instructionsoral, written and visual communicationquality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section outputhousekeepingtasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control, and recyclingThis unit requires the application of skills associated with communicating information on weaving design, production and process improvements as well as performing calculations on yarn quantities. Initiative and enterprise and problem solving will be used to develop the product design. This unit also requires skills associated with planning and organising for the safe and effective use of weaving technology and operations. It requires an ability to check the quality of outcomes and identify and address problems relating to production or weaving fault.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Develop woven product design
  • Design requirements and specifications are interpreted from brief and elements of design are analysed.
  • Design is developed to meet design brief and in line with principles of design and product purpose.
  • Communication tools are used to present woven design for feedback.
  • Feedback is received and design adjusted accordingly.
  • Design is confirmed for production.
       
Element: Plan production of woven design sample
  • Technical aspects of production are identified.
  • Specificationsheet is completed to guide production.
  • Calculations are undertaken to determine yarn quantities and pattern developed to achieve specifications.
  • Materials, tools and equipment required for production are selected and prepared.
       
Element: Produce woven design sample
  • Workstation, tools and equipment are set up according to specifications for work.
  • Yarns to be woven are checked against quality standards.
  • Weaving techniques are undertaken to meet design specifications for sample and according to OHS practices.
  • Woven sample is checked to ensure quality standards are met including testing for accuracy of pattern repeat, colour or placement, and yarn suitability.
       
Element: Evaluate design and production processes
  • Woven sample is assessed against design specifications, pattern and design brief.
  • Weaving faults are identified and design or production problems recognized.
  • Design is analysed and evaluated to identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Production process is evaluated to identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Process and improvements are documented.

completing work systematically with attention to detail and without damage to goods and equipment

Resource implications

Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices.

Context for assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment.

Interdependent assessment

This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units.
